Today after the meeting Brian Harvey did a few flights on his E-Flite Apprentice with Mike and Bob on the buddy box. After successfully landing a few times it was decided he was ready.
With a great hand launch from Dave the Apprentice was away with Brian at the controls and no buddy box. Four minutes later a great landing for what is now his first solo flight.
Great job Brian!
